We honor Dr. Francesco Federico

Dr. Francesco Federico was Kerry Daveline's oncologist, and is attributed by Kerry's family to helping Kerry live years beyond his initial prognosis.

Dr. Federico founded Lakeside Medical Group (The IPA) in 1986 and continues to serve as its President and Medical Director: He is also co-founder of Lakeside Medical Associates (The fully integrated group) in 1993 and serves as its Vice President. In 1991 he co-founded the predecessor of Lakeside Healthcare, Lakeside Health Services (The MSO) and continues to serve as its President and Chief Executive Officer.

Currently, the combined Lakeside organization cares for and manages over 100,000 lives in the San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valley areas with a panel of 250 primary care physicians and over 1000 specialists and ancillary providers.

We thank Dr. Federico for his support of the Hack n' Smack and congratulate him on being our 2008 honoree.
